I've been fiddling with DBus quite a bit lately and I don't really understand its default security policy.
The SystemBus is used for communication between processes that belong to different users. By default, /etc/dbus-1/system.conf says "...Deny everything then punch holes...". Why do we forbid the default user (olpc) by default from advertising processes under a "well known name"? What's wrong with user processes making their presence known on SystemBus? -- Polychronis Ypodimatopoulos Graduate student Viral Communications MIT Media Lab Tel: +1 (617) 459-6058 http://www.mit.edu/~ypod/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
